Two bills were re-filed on Friday, March 17th, 2023: the Hemp and Hemp-Derived CBD Consumer Protection and Market Stabilization Act and the CBD Product Safety and Standardization Act. This would open the doors to allowing hemp derivates like CBD as dietary supplements and food additives.
CONGRESSIONAL BILLS
SPONSORS
According to the Marijuana Movement, these bills are being sponsored by Reps. Morgan Griffith (R-VA) and Angie Craig (D-MN).
According to Griffith the “FDA has dragged its feet in properly regulating CBD and hemp-derived products on the market, creating confusion about its legal uses,” “Americans need better guidance and that is why I have introduced these two pieces of legislation, which will create a pathway for regulation in both the food and dietary supplement spaces.”
